84 Lobbying

Fu Meng Lingjing's expression was a little strange, and his heart said that this was a coincidence, just mentioned Abu, but he didn't expect his subordinates to find his own door, and he didn't say anything at the moment, so he said to Wen Chu: "Deputy Wen Duhu, let's not be in a hurry first, since people are here, you go and see what's going on first." ”

Wen Chu just took the opportunity to ask for the embarrassment just now, and walked out, and saw a few people gathered in front of the door, each holding the reins. The first person, about fifty years old, wears a long robe, his hair is dyed with frost stars, and his eyes are bright.

There were a few young people standing next to him, some of the young men Wen Chu had seen when he went to Abu's hotel, since they were people sent by Abu, they were naturally people who had believed, and Wen Chu also felt kind when he looked at it.

Seeing Wen Chu walking out, a young man next to Fang Zhengyi hurriedly reminded him that Wen Sima was here. Fang Zhengyi hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and everyone also followed Fang Zhengyi to see Wen Chu.

Wen Chu smiled with a smile on his face, greeted everyone warmly, and after greetings, Fang Zhengyi talked about the main purpose of this visit, because of the heavy rain in Hengzhou, which led to the collapse of the mine, and more than a dozen casualties, resulting in the manganese mine in Hengzhou falling into a state of stagnation.

Abu has personally rushed to deal with this matter, and has no time to come, he is entrusted by Abu to visit the Jiedu envoy, and naturally hopes that Lord Wen can help introduce it, and then I heard that Lord Wen happened to be in the Jiedu Embassy's mansion, so he rushed directly to come.

Wen Chu looked at everyone, and then looked at the full cargo on the horseback, and knew a little in his heart, this is the fire extinguishing team sent by Abu!

At present, Anxi has changed to a new festival envoy, Fumeng Lingjing is the existence of a big man, Abu wants to do things here, although there is a banner of the prince of Qiuzi standing in front, but some mountains still have to be worshipped.

But it's also very good, just to help yourself get out of the current predicament, so Wen Chu led everyone into the courtyard, he first led Fang Zhengyi to meet the Jiedu envoy, and the others were busy tying their horses, unloading the goods and resting.

When he arrived in the main hall, Fu Meng Lingjing was still sitting on the big chair, and under the guidance of Wen Chu, Fang Zhengyi hurriedly took off his clothes and saluted: "Below Zhengyi, my marquis sent down to meet the envoy of Jiedu." ”

"Don't be formal, what kind of chief designer are you, right, I don't know what Designer Fang's intentions are?"

Fu Meng Lingjing observed Fang Zhengyi with great interest, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, observed his actions, and pondered his intentions.

Seeing that Fang Zheng was not in a hurry, he talked eloquently: "My lord, there was a great literati in the Western Han Dynasty who was wrong, he once said that the big businessmen accumulate double the interest, and the small ones sit in the column to sell, and they win by their odds.

Therefore, his men do not cultivate, women do not weave, clothes must be brilliant, and food must be meat. The suffering of the dead farmer has the benefit of being strange. Because of its wealth, the princes of transportation, the power of the officials, and the benefits of each other. …… So the merchant annexed the peasants, and the peasants so the exiles. ”

As a border general who has led troops to fight all year round, although he listened to these words a little twisted, he still nodded and motioned for Fang Zhengyi to continue.

Fang Zhengyi continued: "The main meaning of Chao Cuo is that the merchants are not benevolent to the merchants, which has caused great harm to the farmers and agriculture. But my lord sees that at present, the east-west trade of our Tang Dynasty, on the north-south Silk Road of the Tianshan Mountains, there is an endless stream of merchants and travelers.

According to statistics, the annual trade tax is enough to feed all the soldiers and people in the four towns of Anxi. My lord, do you mean that the merchant trade is harmful to our dynasty and not beneficial? ”

Fu Meng Lingjing was able to make the four towns of Anxi Festival, naturally he was a little bit of a pound, and he also agreed with Fang Zhengyi's statement, but he still said quietly: "Mr. Fang, please continue." ”

His idea is that as a superior person, he can't say too much, and if he talks too much, he will lose, and he must use the official authority of the superior to generate a sense of fear among the people below!

Fang Zhengyi continued: "Commercial trade not only brings a large amount of taxes, but also the exchange of various goods and cultures, and look at all kinds of rare and foreign objects in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, most of them are obtained through trade. Today I would like to bring some gifts for adults, please take a look at them. ”

After getting the permission of Fu Meng Lingjing, Fang Zhengyi went out and asked Li Zhengqi and others to bring in the prepared gifts. Glasses, bowls, glass mirrors, most of these Wen Chu have seen.

After the other box was opened, inside was a chic, crystal clear glass bottle, uncorked, Fumeng Lingjing suddenly felt a fragrance rushing to his face, for a while, the room was full of rich fragrance, Fumeng Lingjing was very happy, and said that if such a perfume was dedicated to the lovely person of Xinna, she would be very happy.

And Wen Chu had naturally seen such a perfume, but he didn't expect Abu to start giving it as a gift to the Jiedu Envoy.

Fang Zhengyi introduced that this is a new perfume developed by our Abu Houye, with a strong and long-lasting fragrance, often sprayed on clothes or bedding, and can have the effect of refreshing and fitness.

Fu Meng Lingjing could no longer hold himself, the fragrance of this small bottle was too fragrant, so he spoke: "Please Mr. Fang take it and let the official take a look." Fang Zhengyi hurriedly handed it over to Fu Meng Lingjing.

Fu Meng Lingjing took it in his hand, played with it twice, poked his nose over and sniffed it, then put the small bottle aside, and said: "Although this bottle is small, the perfume in it is indeed a strange thing, but it can only be regarded as a luxury and enjoyment outside the body, it is not surprising." ”

Fang Zhengyi then opened a bag, took out a yellow-orange cob from it, and said, "My lord, please look at this thing, this is called corn." It traveled from as far as the oceans and came from other continents.

It is suitable for summer planting and autumn harvest, drought and waterlogging resistance, and the straw is coarse. Straw and stick cores can be used by the people as burning things, and their output can be more than two percent more than wheat. ”

After listening to Fang Zhengyi's introduction, he suddenly came to his senses, got up and walked out from behind the case, took the corn cob in Fang Zheng's hand, and asked in surprise: "This is corn?" Is what Mr. Fang just said true? ”

Fang Zhengyi hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, my lord, we have tested the same geological conditions many times, if the yield of wheat per mu is 500 catties, then the corn can yield at least 600 catties." ”

Fu Meng Lingjing glared at Fang Zhengyi: "Mr. Fang is joking?" Are you deceiving me that I haven't planted farmland? I think my ancestors were also from a farming family, and I still have a good idea of how much grain I can produce per mu. ”

Fang Zheng smiled and said: "I don't dare to deceive adults, what adults know and see is indeed the same, although corn has lodging resistance, drought and flood resistance, etc., and its yield can indeed be one or two percent more than wheat, but if you want to make the yield per mu reach five or six hundred catties, this has to rely on our other product, please see what this is." ”

As he spoke, he opened another tin box in his hand, which contained crystal white salt-like things, but as the lid of the box opened, a pungent smell suddenly poured out.

The pungent smell made Fu Meng Lingjing and Wen Chu both cover their noses, and Fu Meng Lingjing hummed and said, "What is this?" Why is the taste so big! ”

"My lord, this is nitrogen fertilizer, which can be used to fertilize crops, and after our tests, the fertilized crops can increase the yield by at least 30% or even half."
